Hello, what an exciting day. Amy Schumer's Kind of Pregnant
3
00:00:12.919 --> 00:00:16.039
is out on Netflix today. Hello, I'm Johnny Mack with
4
00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:19.519
your daily comedy news. Amy Schumer is kind of Pregnant.
5
00:00:19.960 --> 00:00:23.280
Reviews are embargoed until today, so I don't have any
6
00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:26.559
to share, But that tells me something. It means that
7
00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:29.839
Netflix is really really excited about these super positive reviews.
8
00:00:29.879 --> 00:00:31.519
They're gonna get for it, and they wanted them to
9
00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:36.600
all come out today. Yeah, we'll see. Amy Schumer wants
10
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:38.880
us to talk about her, so we sure will today.
11
00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:42.159
Let's start with this piece and Decider by Anna Menta.
12
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:46.079
Anna writes Amy Schumer peaked with her twelve Angry Men
13
00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:49.439
sketch from inside Amy Schumer. It's been nearly a decade,
14
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:51.520
but Amy Schumer still hasn't topped her twelve Angry Men
15
00:00:51.560 --> 00:00:54.439
parody from twenty fifteen, and at this point, with former
16
00:00:54.439 --> 00:00:57.439
fans abandoning her in light of her recent controversial opinions,
17
00:00:57.799 --> 00:01:01.520
got to click on that. What are these controversial opinions again? Ah? Yes,
18
00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:04.799
that links to the Independent. Why Amy Schumer's Israel Gaza
19
00:01:04.840 --> 00:01:08.280
posts were corrected by Mlka's daughter and an overwhelming lack
20
00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:11.040
of enthusiasm for her new Netflix movie, it seems plausible
21
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:15.439
that she never will. I'm skimming through this, Ana meant
22
00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:17.840
to write Sin Schumer's defense, It's difficult for anything to
23
00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:20.400
best that near perfect comedy sketch. It aired as the
24
00:01:20.400 --> 00:01:22.840
third episode of the third season of Schumer's Comedy Central
25
00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:25.599
series Inside Amy Schumer, which you can stream for free
26
00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:28.640
on Hulu. Typically, the show featured at least five short
27
00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:31.400
sketches per episode, but Twelve Angry Men Inside Amy Schumer
28
00:01:31.439 --> 00:01:33.799
broke format with a single black and white, eighteen minute
29
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:36.760
long bit. Over the next fifteen minutes or so, we
30
00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:38.760
see a character take on the role of Henry Fond
31
00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:41.120
as Twelve Angry Men character, He's on a mission to
32
00:01:41.159 --> 00:01:43.480
a quit Schumer, not on the basis of reasonable doubt,
33
00:01:43.480 --> 00:01:46.599
but rather on the basis of reasonable chubb but meaning
34
00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:48.959
that each man in the room might, plausibly, under the
35
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:52.959
right circumstances, find Amy Schumer attractive. What makes the sketch
36
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:55.680
so brilliant, it writes Anna, in addition to the pitch
37
00:01:55.680 --> 00:01:59.599
perfect recreation of the original movie's melodramatic tune, is that
38
00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:02.319
this is quite literally how the Internet sounds when talking
39
00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:04.480
about Schumer. It doesn't seem to matter what else Schumer
40
00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:07.359
does to offend, and she does plenty. Another hyperlink, Let
41
00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:09.800
me click on that one. This one took me to BuzzFeed.
42
00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:12.560
Amy Schumer doubled down on her Israel comments and it's
43
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:15.319
not great is that article? There will always be a
44
00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:17.080
man on the corner who simply must chime in to
45
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:19.639
announce that he wouldn't have sex with Amy. Nothing Schumer
46
00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:22.000
has done since has managed to find that perfect balance.
47
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:24.719
A few months after Twelve Angry Men Inside Amy, Schumer
48
00:02:24.719 --> 00:02:27.560
aired Amy's first movie, train Wreck, open in theaters. It's
49
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:30.360
easily her best film, though not quite as concise and
50
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:33.879
clean as the sketch. Still, twenty fifteen remained Schumer's best
51
00:02:33.879 --> 00:02:35.840
air ouns. The year she won her first and only
52
00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:38.800
Emmy Award for Inside Amy Schumer, and she even snagged
53
00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:41.479
a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress. And train Wreck
54
00:02:41.800 --> 00:02:44.000
and reminds us the review embargo for A Kind of
55
00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:46.960
Pregnant has not yet lifted. Never a great sign, but
56
00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:50.360
the general sentiment surrounding the movie seems tippid at best.
57
00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:53.560
We'll get into the reviews tomorrow. Amy popped by the
58
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:57.199
View and confessed to scheduling sex with her husband. She
59
00:02:57.319 --> 00:02:59.840
wanted us all to know what she and her husband
60
00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:02.599
can planned to do for their upcoming wedding anniversary, which
61
00:03:02.599 --> 00:03:05.840
happens to fall the day before Valentine's Day. She wants
62
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:07.960
us to know, Well, actually, that's the weekend of the
63
00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:10.280
SNL fiftieth anniversary special. So I think I get a
64
00:03:10.280 --> 00:03:14.159
plus one. Otherwise I'll just ditch him. She was joking.
65
00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:16.560
I believe no one is getting a plus one. That's
66
00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:19.560
been well reported. Amy added, we're pretty corny. We'll make
67
00:03:19.639 --> 00:03:22.439
sweet love. Amy then shared that they do schedule their
68
00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:25.280
sexy time, saying there's never a vibe. It never just
69
00:03:25.319 --> 00:03:28.000
happens to people do that. One of the hosts agreed
70
00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:31.599
with Amy. Amy also provided the host of the view
71
00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:35.840
with a bag of gifts, including strap on pink waistbags
72
00:03:35.879 --> 00:03:38.360
modeled after pregnant bellies. These were for each of the
73
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:41.280
co hosts to wear. Amy said, just strap them right on.
74
00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:45.680
Whoopy Goldberg seemed confused, or at least pretended to be confused.
75
00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:48.639
Unclear to me, I didn't watch the show. Whoopy held
76
00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:52.719
a quote bewildered facial expression for seventy one seconds then
77
00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:55.199
there was a commercial break. When it came back from commercial,
78
00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:58.199
Whoopy had strapped the fake pregnant belly to her head.
79
00:03:58.719 --> 00:04:01.240
It stayed there for most of the rest of the
80
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:04.919
segment disappeared later in the broadcast. Amy was also out
81
00:04:04.960 --> 00:04:07.960
on the Red Carpet. She believes her five year old
82
00:04:07.960 --> 00:04:12.000
son Jean shares the comedy gene, telling people he's really funny.
83
00:04:12.120 --> 00:04:13.680
I don't know what his story's gonna be, but he
84
00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:17.360
loves doing stunts and making people laugh. Other folks on
85
00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:20.160
the Red Carpet where co stars Julian Bell, will Forte,
86
00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:24.000
Damon Wayne's junior, and others. Adam Sandler is one of
87
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:27.639
the producers. He was there with his wife Jerry Seinfeld
88
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:31.879
and Jessica Seinfeld also stopped by the Red Carpet. Moving on,
89
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:35.800
the Minnesota Star Tribune caught one of Nicki Glaser's recent shows.
90
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:38.519
They write for Most of the evening, name dropping was
91
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:40.920
kept to a minimum. She was more focused on defending
92
00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:43.839
the use of a zempic, detailing her visits to tanning salons,
93
00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:46.759
and admitting to being jealous of supermodels. She took on
94
00:04:46.879 --> 00:04:49.560
social influencers because they look cuter than she does. With
95
00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:51.360
little effort and said, I want you to do a
96
00:04:51.399 --> 00:04:54.600
TikTok dance next to a helicopter. But the Star Tribune writes,
97
00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:57.759
but Glazer's underdog persona doesn't resonate like it used to.
98
00:04:58.279 --> 00:04:59.879
It's hard to feel sorry for someone who, at this
99
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:01.959
moment just might be the most talked about comedian on
100
00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:05.759
the planet. Glazer was more effective when exploring darker themes
101
00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:07.639
that have nothing to do with her quest for eternal youth.
102
00:05:07.959 --> 00:05:11.759
Apparently she did some material involving the plane crash in Washington,
103
00:05:11.839 --> 00:05:13.920
d C. It is unclear to me what that material
104
00:05:13.920 --> 00:05:16.279
it was. She got into some other stuff that I
105
00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:19.639
don't even want to talk about on this podcast, but
106
00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:23.439
sounds like it was quote unquote outrageous. Kevin Art has
107
00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:26.000
revealed that he has a new pet eagle. He has
108
00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:29.319
named the eagle Saquon Barkley, after the eagle's running back.
109
00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:32.000
I feel like Kevin has done this bit before around
110
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:35.680
the Super Bowl involving an eagle. Kevin went on Instagram
111
00:05:35.720 --> 00:05:39.040
on Monday, Yeah I am remembering correctly. He showed off
112
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:41.480
his first pet eagle, which is named Jalen Hurts, which
113
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:43.399
he says he purchased for a million five back in
114
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:46.000
twenty twenty three. Okay, I did remember that correctly. Kevin
115
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:48.560
revealed he had some issue with Jalen Hurts, the pet eagle,
116
00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:52.040
who he says mistook Kevin for a rodent. Kevin calls
117
00:05:52.079 --> 00:05:54.959
in trainers to get the pet eagle Hurts properly trained,
118
00:05:55.319 --> 00:05:57.879
and then said, like anything, all good things come in pairs.
119
00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:01.040
The camera zooms out, there's another eagle. Kevin says he
120
00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.519
dropped twelve million dollars on a rare eagle with big
121
00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:07.240
legs and named it Saquon Borkley. Kevin then makes a
122
00:06:07.279 --> 00:06:11.639
cocktail called the Borkley Hurts using his tequila brand. Because
123
00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:14.519
Kevin always has to be hustling stuff. And speaking of
124
00:06:14.519 --> 00:06:18.160
the eagle transition, Sam Meryl spoke to The Eagle Online
125
00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:20.519
and that's a college newspaper. What a terrible segue. I
126
00:06:20.519 --> 00:06:23.480
should be embarrassed by that. The Eagle Online was curious
127
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:25.399
if Sam knew he wanted to go into comedy by
128
00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:27.800
the time he was in college. Sam said, I did. Actually,
129
00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:29.759
my first time on stage was right after high school
130
00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:31.800
when school was ending, and then I was handing out
131
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:33.639
flyers in my free time for stage time. When I
132
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:35.800
was in college, that is awful if you've ever seen
133
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:37.759
anybody have to do that. When I briefly went to
134
00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:39.759
Tulane University, I kind of got to choose some of
135
00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:41.439
the comics that bring down. I had a good set
136
00:06:41.480 --> 00:06:42.879
in front of one of the comics they brought down.
137
00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:44.439
I already kind of knew I liked stand up a lot.
138
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:46.319
It was kind of all on you. You could choose
139
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:47.879
how hard you were going to work or how not
140
00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:49.720
hard you were going to work. I felt like I
141
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:51.360
was missing out socially a little bit because I had
142
00:06:51.399 --> 00:06:53.040
friends who were like, ah, it's a sparty night and
143
00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:55.399
I'm literally handing flyers out in the street and stuff
144
00:06:55.439 --> 00:06:57.040
like that. But I also really liked stand up. I
145
00:06:57.079 --> 00:06:58.680
liked being around comics, so I did feel like I
146
00:06:58.680 --> 00:07:00.680
was bonding with a different type of people at that time.
147
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:02.439
So you know, it was just a choice, and I
148
00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:04.360
think I figured, if this doesn't work out, it'll just
149
00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:06.759
be a chapter in my life. Sam was getting ready
150
00:07:06.759 --> 00:07:09.959
to play d C and they were curious if political
151
00:07:10.040 --> 00:07:12.399
jokes play differently in DC. Sam said, good question. I
152
00:07:12.439 --> 00:07:13.800
haven't been to DC in a couple of years. I
153
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:15.600
think the crowd seems to be informed, but I don't
154
00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:17.839
know if it plays differently. I think maybe they're expecting it.
155
00:07:17.879 --> 00:07:19.920
I'll do current events and I'll do social commentary, but
156
00:07:19.959 --> 00:07:21.759
I try to keep it from being red versus blue
157
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:23.680
in my act. Clearly, of course i'll dump on a
158
00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:26.079
particular person, but I think when you draw the line
159
00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:28.879
too clearly, like there's enough division. It's everywhere. So for me,
160
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:31.079
pouring gasoline on fire is kind of pointless when you're
161
00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:32.639
trying to give people a good night out. There's ways
162
00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:34.519
to do it, I think, and I've done it, but
163
00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:36.160
I think it's a line, you know, similar to a
164
00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:38.800
dark joke. There's a line to be walked. Kat Williams
165
00:07:38.839 --> 00:07:42.839
has bought the Fort McClellan property. This is in Aniston, Alabama.
166
00:07:42.959 --> 00:07:45.360
Kat's plan is to turn it into a production studio.
167
00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:48.439
Mayor Jack Draper said, this is a sector of the
168
00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:51.439
economy that I think could be transformational for this region.

We as a city have met with mister Williams team

consistently over the last few months. You know, you're talking
171
00:07:56.199 --> 00:07:58.560
about jobs. You're talking about construction projects not only for
172
00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:01.600
the city, county, but also the rein before it was
173
00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:05.040
closed in nineteen ninety nine. No word on when the
174
00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:09.639

194
00:09:27.279 --> 00:09:30.879
On Gossip Corner, TMZ reports, Corey Holcombe says he got
195
00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:33.639
sucker punched by a female comedian who's hell bent on
196
00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:37.600
taking him down physically and financially, so he's seeking court
197
00:09:37.720 --> 00:09:41.480
ordered protection. As the story goes, back in December, Corey
198
00:09:41.559 --> 00:09:44.519
was outside the Hollywood improv a woman put hands on
199
00:09:44.600 --> 00:09:46.759
him as his back was turned to her. In the
200
00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:50.159
documents filed Monday in LA Superior Court, Corey Holcombe claims
201
00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:53.240
she hurled a bunch of insults and obscenities worthy of
202
00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:57.799
a celebrity roost. Among the comments, the woman allegedly made
203
00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:01.840
your mother is a B word. And I'll clean this up,
204
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:05.200
penis ain't uh you know anything to look at? Really
205
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:05.799
cleaning it up?
206
00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:05.960
There?
207
00:10:06.279 --> 00:10:09.159
D and s or the words that are asteriskd out
208
00:10:09.240 --> 00:10:13.440
in the copy I'm reading from back to his back
209
00:10:13.480 --> 00:10:16.919
to his d apparently shield up. That's why your wrist
210
00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:21.000
gout broke. TMZ says for the record, Corey says his
211
00:10:21.000 --> 00:10:25.679
wrist injury was from skateboarding, not self love. I'm glad
212
00:10:25.679 --> 00:10:28.919
to clear that up. Corey. A hearing was scheduled where
213
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:30.919
both Corey and the woman will be able to share
214
00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:33.759
their versions of what happened, and then the judge was
215
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:36.279
going to decide what happened. I can't wait to report
216
00:10:36.279 --> 00:10:39.600
back on that one. Will Ferrell's working on untitled comedy
217
00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:43.519
project movie He'll Start with Zac Efron. Efron will play
218
00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:45.960
a young convict who's fresh out of prison. Instead of
219
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:48.559
choosing to make good on his newfound freedom, the convict
220
00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:51.240
decides to seek revenge on the reality TV judge played
221
00:10:51.240 --> 00:10:54.399
by Will Ferrell, whose conviction put him behind bars. I
222
00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:58.519
